Seiko Presage Classic Series Limited Edition SPB529J1

The light brown gradient dial is based on Shiracha, a shade that was popular among tea masters and traditional arts enthusiasts during the aforementioned Bunsei era. There are applied gold-toned bar-shaped indices and hands that carry forward from last year (the seconds hand counterweight has a distinctive spearhead shape), while a simple minute/seconds track spans the perimeter. A bevelled date window sits at 3 o’clock.
